Sporttracks fitlog import workout name

[Graham White]

I've decided to move to GC. I've about 9 years of training files in Sporttracks (desktop version and the plugins continued to work but it is only a metter of time beore the PC tied to the licence gives up)

I use the Workout Name field to label activities, e.g. description of an intervals session or the course for a race. The .fitlog file stores this data in a field called <Name>. How do I pull this data into a metadata field I can use for searching for activities to compare, like races or fitness tests?

Thanks

Looking at the parser (https://github.com/GoldenCheetah/GoldenCheetah/blob/master/src/FileIO/FitlogParser.cpp), Sport, Device, Route, Equipment and Notes are imported as metadata. If you attach a sample file I can take a look for the “name” field.

Attached a small sample file. <Name> is close to the start of the file. It is easy enough to create a file with multiple activities if it helps.

The text in the <Name> field does synch with sporttracks.mobi and the activity page there shows it as 'Workout name' if you click to edit it in mobi.

That tag is ignored when importing fitlog files, but on download from sporttracks.mobi it is mapped to "Objectives" metadata field according to https://github.com/GoldenCheetah/GoldenCheetah/blob/98c22dc18536abec9a2ea0163fbdbb78be377e09/src/Cloud/SportTracks.cpp#L341, this looks like a typo since GC standard field is "Objective" (singular), you should find it in Extra tab after sync.

BTW, Name was not present in the sample we used to add Route and Equipment: https://groups.google.com/g/golden-cheetah-users/c/yRrbi_h_giM/m/hLIqox6RAwAJ

Perhaps "Workout Title" is a better match from predefined metadata fields.

I you are using Windows, a v3.6 installer is available from https://ci.appveyor.com/project/Joern-R/goldencheetah-knhd8/builds/43295247/artifacts to import the Name element as Objective from fitlog files.

[Graham White]

Thanks, I'll try the installer at the link you provided at the weekend and post back how I get on.

Thanks for this. Worked. Successfully imported 6 months of data in one download. 

Thanks again
